Emily wakes to find that her world has
plummeted into darkness--the clouds have spilled out of the sky and taken the
sun.

And there is more to the mysterious fog--the
mist is poison, killing everything in its path. Emily's home is no match for
the caustic fog, and her family is suddenly on the run for safety.

But when she learns that the machines built
to save the world could be the cause of the accident, Emily turns to her
father, the original architect, with the hope that they can stop the
environmental catastrophe.

My thoughts:

Going Gray
is a gripping story that kept me at the edge of my seat from pretty much the first page. The book starts off with a bang and was an intriguing read until
the last few pages.

The ending
however felt abrupt and there was not much story on how Emily and the group
survived. I really did want to read more about what happened to Emily, Justin
and Peter and how they built their life to survive the apocalypse. It would
have been great if it was elaborated a bit more.

But anyway,
the ending left me with a few unanswered questions: Why did the skies fall? What is the purpose of the machine? I suppose this book really
focusses on how the apocalypse begins and sets the pace for the next book in
the series, which I look forward to reading. So much so that I bought the Gray Omnibus
version that has all four books from the series on my Kobo yesterday.

Going Gray
is a quick read seeing that it is only 285 pages in total. Storyline was
captivating making it an easier read. I gave this book a 4 over 5 on Goodreads.
